When Maggie and Andy Sorrells vowed to stick by each other through thick and thin, they were serious. The couple, who once weighed a combined 1,000 pounds, has been through the very,very thick together. Both Maggie and Andy had lifelong weight issues before they met online and eventually married. At 6' 3", Andy weighed over 500 pounds at his heaviest. Maggie weighed over 400 pounds and was told by physicians that she might not live to be 30 if she didn't do something about her weight. It took the two of them coming together to lose the weight. Maggie discovered Weigh Down, a faith based weight loss program, and found success through portion control and healthy eating habits. After watching her success, Andy joined her and the two of them are now at normal, healthy weights. Andy can now buy his clothing off the rack.
